This was an interesting look at the history of Puerto Rico, which I didn't know much about. I would also say there are a few similarities to "Gone With the Wind," in that they are both about headstrong women in love with a parcel of land.

I really enjoyed this book, although I really wish that I had reread Divergent right before starting this book, because it took me a while to get back into the swing of things.

Short horror stories, some of which made me feel scared. This is not necessarily a hard thing.

For someone who has written pretty good female characters in the past, I was really disappointed with this book.

I enjoyed it. I liked comparing it to "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" and seeing where the plot lined up and where it changed.
